An agent skill by muratcankoylan, from muratcankoylan/Agent-Skills-for-Context-Engineering. Tags: automation, debugging, developer-tools, performance, strategy.
What it does
This skill should be used when the harness, scaffold, workflow, or optimizer itself is the optimization target: recursive self-improvement (RSI) loops, meta-harnesses, self-improving harnesses that mine their own failures and propose bounded edits, evolutionary or population-based search over agent scaffolds, acceptance gates for self-modifying systems, and agentic context evolution where the mechanism that produces context is versioned and evolved. Route governance of a single autonomous loop (locked surfaces, durable logs, rollback, novelty gates, approval boundaries) to harness-engineering, measurement and quality-gate design to evaluation, judge design to advanced-evaluation, and remote sandbox infrastructure to hosted-agents.
Install
With the skills CLI, which installs into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other agents:
npx skills add muratcankoylan/Agent-Skills-for-Context-Engineering --skill self-improvement-loops
Or copy the skill folder into Claude Code's skills directory by hand (~/.claude/skills for every project, or .claude/skills inside one):
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/muratcankoylan/Agent-Skills-for-Context-Engineering
cp -r Agent-Skills-for-Context-Engineering/skills/self-improvement-loops ~/.claude/skills/self-improvement-loops
Safety box score
Not rated yet. A safety box score grades what a skill and its scripts can reach on the machine of whoever installs it, across eight categories from shell execution to secrets access. Anyone can request one from this page; it is saved for everyone. How the score works.
